Spate of Violent Attacks on Buses Put Riders on High Alert

With 350 million annual bus riders, Metro says violent crimes on Metro buses are minimal. Still, violent incidents – including the assault of an 89-year-old man, who later died, and the alleged 10-minute long rape of a mentally disabled woman – have riders on high alert, with many of them carrying legal weapons to protect themselves just in case.
